SafeHR overview

What is SafeHR?

We believe that HR software should remove friction from the day to day running of your business, not create more of it. That’s why we’ve focused our easy-to-use self-service platform on core HR activities such as holiday, absence and time management, payroll/expenses and staff onboarding/development.

These time-saving features will save you and your team hours every week on HR admin, and they’re backed up by powerful reporting functionality and comprehensive security measures that keeps your employee data safe.

We make sure our software is priced affordably on a rolling monthly contract, we don’t charge set up fees, and it takes a few hours – not weeks – to launch within your organisation.

How refreshing does that sound?

Key benefits of using SafeHR

Our holiday and absence planner tool automatically works out holiday time for staff accordingly and allows employees to see their remaining holiday days at any time.

Pay staff the right amount, at the right time, with automatic payroll calculations based on employee timesheets and pay rates.

Integrate to Xero or Quickbooks Online accounting software to further improve the expenses workflow and see cashflow in real time, manage taxes and invoices, pay bills, and more.

Set reminders for important dates or deadlines, and get alerts about important issues, employment anniversaries, and even birthdays.

Generate a variety of reports on staff such as sick days, salaries, payroll, pay raises, bonuses, and more. View them on screen, save them as a PDF, or print them out.

Chief Executive Officer

“Somethings are still in development and a few teething problems. There are a few items that need to be tweaked to make them work how we'd like them to.”
